This is the second film picturing the British march from Boston to Lexington and of the two this is easily the better. One wishes he could commend it wholly. It if had been only a bit more realistic, it would have been wonderful. Some of it is wonderful, but not the repulse at the bridge. There was no cause for panic as shown. Those troops needed more than that to frighten them. The British soldiers should have been met with a much larger and wider volume of smoke and the panic should, perhaps, have overcome them, as a whole, more suddenly. This was the place to pile up the corpses rather than along the road. At the rate they fell there, there wouldn't have been any left. The picture awakens deep emotions and is effective. - The Moving Picture World, July 29, 1911
